bangin' the withdrawal
You know, i've always said that weekenders are the worst. It's just a tease of touring , all the prep but as soon as you start feeling like you're in the swing of things -BAM! it's time to go home and nurse what my friend Craig refers too as post-partum depression. But with weekenders it's mixed with blue balls cause you just KNOW that if you had play another 2-3 shows you would really gave it. Right?posted: 2007-05-23 23:41:03 DMBQ

Yip Yip Tour Blog Part 2
Columbia, Missouri: We got to town a little early and met up with cooper, a friend of Darren. We ate some vegan chilli and got ice cream and played some arcade games downtown before the show. The show was at a horror-themed bar called the Eastside Tavern. The sound was awful, but the people were pretty nice.posted: 2007-04-24 17:21:08 AKIMBO
Akimbo sxsw tour blog... tons of beer, hair and rock.
Tour started in Medford, Oregon at Johnny B's. The show was set up by our good friends Stacy and Kimbo Schrag and would be the first of many with Green Milk From the Planet Orange from Tokyo. Green Milk is a three piece that plays psychedelic jam rock, seated on stage in metal folding chairs, and is one of those bands that is so proficient they kind of make me feel like our band is a joke that gets by on volume. They have the nicknames "K" (guitar/vocals), "T" (bass) and "Ace" (drums) which they stick to outside of band life and only makes them more intriguing and awesome. Technically it was our second show with them if you count our kick off show in Seattle at the Comet Tavern, but I don't count Seattle shows as being on tour.posted: 2007-04-15 19:24:34 the apes
Apes spring mini-tour part 1
The date is Saturday March 10th and I hereby declare that Apes Spring Mini-Tour 2007 is officially underway. I am currently sitting in the back left passenger’s captain chair of our beloved ’87 Ford Econoline Conversion van, better know as Vannie. It’s dark in here. Breck is driving. Jeff is in front, no longer the official navigator, as Mike B has given him a GPS and it has voice data software. And when the voice doesn’t direct, Jeff just turns the laptop screen toward the driver with the expectation that he/she will read the screen while driving 80 mphposted: 2007-04-14 19:54:15 the apes
Apes spring mini tour part 2
Saturday is supposed to be the day of rest. We decide to cancel our final SxSW show. Jeff’s hands are a mess of open, bloody wounds, and he needs several drum parts. Everyone wants to go to the colossal flagship Austin Whole Foods for breakfast. After eating and observing very tall goth kids in the parking lot, we discuss the plan for our free day. We decide to split up. Erick and I will go downtown and check out a bunch of free shows on the other side of the highway. Jeff and Breck want to run errands and relax. Our first stop is a record store hosting the Fuck by Fuck You festival.posted: 2007-04-08 12:14:54 yip yip
Yip-Yip tour blog 2007.
The start of the tour.... We were super-late to the first show. We didn’t leave Orlando until three o’clock. We got to the go bar pretty late, almost eleven o’clock. We were just in time for the show. We slept in the car in a parking lot because we couldn’t find a place to stay.posted: 2007-03-16 00:57:02 Shellshag
